In 2021, the 20th anniversary edition after Takashi Asahina died. The famous performance of "TOKYO FM Archive Selection" will be the first SACD for Tower Records only! An incandescent live performance by Asahina and the New Japan Philharmonic in the 1970s, which is hotly handed down among fans. It is a once-in-a-lifetime big performance that challenged Haydn, Beethoven, Bruckner, and three symphonists head-on. Taking advantage of the single layer, 228 minutes of performance is recorded on one disc, and for this time, a new remastering by Mr. Keisuke Saito of Altus label is performed from the master sound source of 96kHz / 24bit, and the sound quality is also greatly powered. up. If you listen to them all together, you will be disappointed with the spectacular and great performance. The booklet also includes a valuable essay by Akio Jissoji, a movie director who has a close relationship with Asahina and is a good understanding of him!

Takashi Asahina has built a closer relationship from the 1980s to the 1990s since it first appeared on the New Japan Philharmonic in 1975, but in April 1977, the fifth year since its founding, "Hero" It is said that Bruckner's Symphony No. 8 was an important opportunity. The sound source to be restored now is the live at this time, especially the "hero" at the special concert, a masterpiece that conveys the enthusiastic atmosphere of the day. At the time, the performance with Asahina, whose style was probably quite different from the music making of Seiji Ozawa and Kazuhiro Koizumi, may have been confusing and hesitant at first, but as the co-starring continued, It can be said that the early process of fusion of the two is particularly well captured in this SACD because of its high sound quality. Bruckner: Symphony No. 8 of the same year is also his sixth live performance, and since he boasts the number of performances next to "No. 7", he already convinces the listener with a stable interpretation. In addition, in this "No. 8", the barking of cats is mixed in during the live, and it may be a well-known performance in that sense (see Mr. Tojo's sentence in the manual for the contents). In addition, "No. 4" in March 1979 was the work that had the most opportunities in his Bruckner performance, and he conducts many guest performances other than the Osaka Philharmonic Orchestra. Just the year before this year, the first Japanese complete collection of Bruckner's symphonies was completed (Jean-Jean master), and it was the time when he was performing with the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra and the Sapporo Symphony Orchestra (December 14, 1978. This sound source was released in 2015 on the Tower Planning Board (TWFS-90006). As expected, there are moments where you can feel his love for Bruckner again in the performance that entered the hall, and it can be said that it is a recording suitable for reproduction with high sound quality.
